However, if you are not one of those identified but have the intention of using eFPS, you can submit a Letter of Intent addressed to the Revenue District Office (RDO) where you are registered, for proper evaluation and approval. You can only enroll and eventually log on to the eFPS website upon approval of your application. Please coordinate with the Taxpayer Service Section (TSS) of your RDO.

Here are the requisites for the availment of the eFPS system:

Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) should be registered in our BIR Integrated Tax System;

Certification authorizing any of the two (2) officers designated to file the return under Section 52 (A) of the Tax Code (President or other principal officer, and Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer of the Corporation) who shall enroll for the system usage;

Step 4: The eFPS enrollment form appears. Complete the required fields on the Enrollment Form page. Then, click on the “Submit” button.

Afterwards, the system will inform you that your enrollment has been successfully received. Then you have to wait for an e-mail message from BIR informing you of the status of your enrollment – whether approved or disapproved. Once your account has been activated, you are ready to e-file and e-pay, and perform all the functions within eFPS.

It is important, however, for you to remember your username and password, as well as the answer to the challenge question. Keep the answer to yourself. Do not make it easy to guess, nor write it down.
